He's closer to 21 than 20.

So just to confirm, the guy is still 20.

Kenny is adamant we won't play on the counter attack, but I'd agree with you - if we try to go toe to toe against the big European teams away from home it is unlikely to go well for us.

What game were both of you watching?! Brighton did very well today and got a point at 3rd placed Leicester were always going to dominate the second half given they're the much stronger team. 

Brighton deserve a lot of credit for their point and they played some really decent football. 

4 points against Leicester and Arsenal is a fantastic return. I hope they stay up. 

I thought they had a very good first half and said as much.
Leicester started playing after the break and Brighton then struggled in any forward capacity (which is where my interest was, looking at Connolly), but were comfortable enough for the point.
I'd say they are almost guaranteed to stay up now, as expecting the others below to get many pts is expecting a lot at this stage.
Really hope to see Molumby in that midfield next season in the PL.

Molumby could be playing Premiership football with either Brighton or Millwall, should they get promoted and sign him. I would anticipate the former, the loan spell has given him the chance to prove his worth and he's taken it. I hope Brighton stay up and think they will. O'Hora was one of only six from their under-23s to be given new contracts so they do rate him there and he has a chance.

Of all our young strikers, Connolly has been by far the most impressive at the top level so far. I think he's next in line after Parrott in terms of raw ability. Feel a bit sorry for him playing alongside Maupay who is an exceptionally greedy player; whereas Connolly tries to create chances for him, Maupay seems to actively avoid returning the favour.
We're decent enough..

I'd be happy enough to see Molumby get another loan in The Championship next season if it meant playing 30+ matches and starting week in week out.

He'll only be turning 21 in August so still has plenty of time on his side to make the jump up to the PL.

That's a good shout, molumby keeping up the progress he's making and he could be fighting for a Brighton start.

Agreed. I thought they only looked stretched the last 20 mins. Very good return and huge 4 points that will likely see them stay up. I think Brighton just lack a better number 10 or someone better than Mooy who is too slow now for EPL and his eye for a pass seems to be gone. They seem to play him out wide left alot which is very strange to me considering his lack of pace. Stephens Proper and the rest of their midfield are all too similar. I fancy Trossard will take Mooys place next year anyway.

A lot of low scoring and 0-0 games so far since the restart or am I imagining that?
